O THOU that hangedst on the tree, Our curse and sufferings to remove, Pity the souls that look to thee, And save us by thy dying love.

We have no outward righteousness, No merits or good works, to plead; We only can be saved by grace: Thy grace will here be free indeed.

Save us by grace, through faith alone, A faith thou must thyself impart; A faith that would by works be shown, A faith that purifies the heart.

A faith that doth the mountains move, A faith that shows our sins forgiven, A faith that sweetly works by love, And ascertains our claim to heaven.

This is the faith we humbly seek, The faith in thine all-cleansing blood, That blood which doth for sinners speak; O let it speak us up to God! ==L. M. SECOND PART

CANST thou reject our dying prayer, Or cast us out who come to thee? Our sins, ah! wherefore didst thou bear? Jesus, remember Calvary!

Numbered with the transgressors thou, Between the felons crucified, Speak to our hearts, and tell us now, Wherefore hast thou for sinners died?

For us wast thou not lifted up? For us a bleeding victim made? That we, the abjects we, might hope, Thou hast for all a ransom paid.

O might we with believing eyes, Thee in thy bloody vesture see, And cast us on thy sacrifice! Jesus, my Lord, remember me!
